I did not know he was 6'9
We are shoring up the wing for sure.

Now get Gortat after he's bought out (for another bruiser) and playoffs here we come.

Interesting

 

[Sac.Kings]

Not bad but I’ve never been a fan of Brewer. Always rubbed me the wrong way for some reason.

 

[ESP47]

Good decision. He brings something the team lacks in perimeter defense.

Sixer fans on twitter aren't too happy about losing him.

 

[mac]

Good signing. Will certainly add speed to the team

 

[pdxKingsFan]

Nice. Sixers let him got for Malachi???

He's a dude that shows up and does what's asked. Can't argue with that.

 

[NME]

Did somebody order wings?

 

[Tetsujin]

Vlade not ****ing around about the whole making the playoffs this year thing.

 

[ParniValjak]

I like!

 

[mbkings10]

Definitely a pesky player for the opponent. I remember the Kings wanted to sign him a few years back but wound up with Butler instead.

No joke. This guy came into my restaurant one time. I was so busy because I was alone. Obviously a noticed a very tall dude but we would get tall guys in a lot because it was close to a couple gyms. He tipped me $20 to go and when he left another customer was like “did you not notice that was Corey Brewer?” And I was like “omg!”

 

[Kings_of_California]

Ew. Not into this at all.

I remember he took a three against the Kings and his jumper looked awful and it barely reached the rim.

That’s all I really know about him.

Deep, deep scouting report.

Deep, deep scouting report.

Indeed.

He was also a Laker.

There’s the full extent of my Corey Brewer knowledge.

 

[The Hammer]

Interesting. I like it. Little tryout for a playoff run.

I hope you let the Kings FO know about this.

 

[Tetsujin]

Pesky defender who hustles and is generally well liked by every guy he plays with.

Not an offensive talent by any means but we don’t really need another scorer at this point.

It’s a ten day contract and you could do far worse than Brewer

 

[Kings_of_California]

I don't care for Brewer the player but we needed a vet I guess. He's managed to hang around so he must bring something to the table. He played well for the sixers during his 10 day. I was surprised he didn't stick with them.

 

[Sac.1989]

Good addition. Will replace the defensive intensity of Shump.

Good vet signing

 

[Cojc]

We keep getting deeper

Vlade is addressing our needs and truly trying to shore up the roster. This move gives us some depth at small forward and he will add some much needed experience and another defensive wing.

He is for the most part replaced the part of the roster that gets very little run except in blowout games with a few players who may not get a lot of run this season but should be a reliable option more than what we had.

He has picked up 3 players who either are truly small forwards or can play the position. I also believe by not really moving any of our core players it will be easier to insert players into the one position that gave us fits and frustration.

 

[The_Jamal]

Very similar player to Shump, nice depth signing and can be a good voice in the locker room. Can defend multiple positions. Was a rotation guy in 41 of his career 47 playoff games.

Not sure if he gets minutes though, unless we squeeze out Yogi

 

[Kings_of_California]

Yea actually the more I think about it the more I'm fine with this. I just looked at the list of players who were bought out and...yea. Brewer is fine.

 

[killer123]

Is he washed? How gd is his defence?

 

[PurpleHaze]

Brewer in BMac out. That's good enough for me over next 10 days, then we'll see.

 

[Nokidding]

Been saying this at least 3-4 times in the SF trade thread glad they got it done.

 

[Nokidding]

Is he washed? How gd is his defence?

He's a gambling defender for the most part he did a nice job on Harden couple games back he's still super quick up and down the floor.

 

[Kings_of_California]

Is he washed? How gd is his defence?

Defense has always been his calling card. He doesn't bring much else. His offense has always been limited to mostly transition buckets. But, transition is our strength so...cool I guess.

Doesn't really matter. At the end of the day he'll barely play. He's prob here to soak up end of bench minutes and for his vet leadership.

As for whether he's washed, your guess is as good as mine.

 

[G_M]

He's the best wing defender on the roster. In the Western Conference you can't have too many wing defenders..
